About
Mission Its creation... RCUH is a State agency, established by the Legislature in 1965, and is attached to the University of Hawaii for administrative purposes. Its enabling legislation is codified as Chapter 304A - 3001 to 3011 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes. Its mission... The fundamental mission of RCUH is to support the research and training programs of the University of Hawaii and to enhance research, development, and training generally in Hawaii. Its need... "...the rapid and extensive entry of the University of Hawaii into basic and applied research programs sponsored by the federal government, and into applied research programs which couple University capability with that of private industry, requires a much more flexible and streamlined method of operation than is permitted the usual operations of state agencies. In short, the University must be able to function in research activities more like a business..." --Standing Committee Report 809, House Committee on Higher Education, 1965 "...Increasingly, research contracts accepted by the University require rapidity of action and flexibility in operational and financial activities more characteristic of business firms than of governmental agencies. State regulations of many types which control the University's normal functioning do not provide the expeditious managerial environment needed to function in the highly competitive area of science-related activities now involving universities, federal government and private industry." --Standing Committee Report 836, Senate Committee on Ways & Means, 1965 Although penned more than thirty years ago, these words still hold true today. In fact, these words are even more profound today. The University has made tremendous strides in the highly competitive world of externally-funded research, and today, it stands alongside the great research universities. We believe RCUH's role in facilitating research activities has contributed to this achievement.
